“Who you spend time with is who you become”

Amongst many insights that weekend, “Who you spend time with is who you become” was powerful for me, but I also found it difficult to implement.

You might have heard this quote, or similar concepts, including research showing that your income often has a direct correlation with your five closest friends.

So what’s going on here? And how do we manage choices and decisions about what to do when we have an awareness of this concept?

Here are some of the challenges and solutions as I see them:

1.  Maybe the people around you are not the best influence, but you love them, and you’re a good friend, so what do you do?

2.  What about family? Does this idea tell you to leave family members who aren’t a positive influence in the dust, because they’re not helping you?

3.  Where do you find new friends and positive influence anyway? Is there a special club or secret meeting place?
